[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1662589] Re: Touchpad not working correctly after kernel upgrade
Sounds like they want both the Xenial and Yakkety kernels tested. You should be able to install the yakkety kernel on Xenial if you don't want to upgrade now.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1590590] Re: Touchpad not recognized on Dell Latitude E7470 Ultrabook
BTW, some Dell Precision 7510 systems (possibly only Xeon systems?) have a hardware issue where the trackstick or the touchpad or both will periodically get "stuck" (stop responding briefly) when on A/C power, when switchable graphics is enabled, when there is significant 2D or 3D video activity being rendered on the Intel video card, and when the Alps device is being run by an Alps driver (either this Linux driver or the standard Windows driver) instead of being run in PS/2 compatibility mode. However, Dell is not taking my complaints about this seriously, in part because they "have not received any other complaints about this issue".

A number of relevant bug fixes have been committed to the kernel since this
driver was backported. These fixes should probably be backported as well:
